408

Things were happening very fast. One second they were looking at the weird rock, trying to find out why would there be a barrier at a place no one lived at anymore and the next they were being shot at by arrows. 

With Alexander's warning they had all managed to avoid getting hurt. They had stumbled to the side, landing on the warm sun as a few arrors we're heading their way. They passed right through the rock, its barrier broken now by Mark's spell.

"We come in peace!" Mark shouted particularly to no one and Allias rolled his eyes as he stood up. As if something like that would work, he thought, anticipating the next arrow so he could trace it back to their attackers. 

Nothing happened though. It was as if they had left, no arrows flying towards them. Mark stood up, dusting off some sand from his pants and scoffed as he looked at Allias.
